Lens to Win

Reason for tip

Lens can make the most of home advantage in this clash between two sides who are losing ground on the Champions League places. The hosts need to bounce back from a midweek loss, but their strong recent record at the back can carry them to success against a Marseille outfit who have lost six of their last eight away games in Ligue 1.

Both sides losing ground

Both of these sides hoped to be in the mix for the Champions League this term, but through the early stages of the season the pair have already fallen off the top-four race. The two sides are level on 13 points heading into this weekend, leaving them in the middle of the pack.

The loser of this clash faces falling 10 points shy of fourth before Christmas, so there are huge stakes to this encounter. While Marseille won in midweek after Lens lost a vital Champions League clash with PSV, the hosts have the edge in this one.

Marseille have lost six of their last eight away trips in Ligue 1, while they come into this clash short on goals. Lens look good defensively at the moment and the hosts have won two of their last three at home in the league, keeping four clean sheets in five Ligue 1 games. With the visitors struggling on the road, back the hosts to come out on top.
